The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1887-06-02

The Elizabethton boom seems to
have been pretty we'll watered-thev
have plenty of water, yer know
COMET
1t is better to have well watered,
than mud-bespattered boom. Yes,
we have plenty OF clean, clear water,
OF so pure a quality yer know" that
1t will not form a carbonate Of lime
upon the boilers OF steam engines, and
thereby entail an enormous tax upon
manufacturers, Rack back to de
rear, Jemima, wild yer limestone
juice. "-MouRtajneer,
The Mountajneer grows poetic over
their beautiful mountain stream, but
torgets to say that it is used for moth
ing but fishing hole" for the citi-
2ens. There is another reason why
the "clean, clear water" will not cor
rode boilers, There are no boilers in
Elizabethton to corrode. The tan
merry used limestone water in the boil
ers a few years ago and had some trou-
BILE, OF course, Now they are using
pure free stone water, found in abund-
ance in that creek that "creeps and
struggles through this place, and
have never been bothered since.
The Doctor from Johnson City's
fish market, ten miles above here on
the E. I. & W. N. G. R. R., should try
chlorotorm on us. Gas don't have
any etfect.--CoMET.
The Doctor, above referred to au-
thorlzes us to state, that he much pre-.
fers living in fish market to a frog
morket, and that although he dislikes
to completely deaden an almost
pulseless patient by the use OF chloro-
form, he has concluded to do so in this
case, in order that the green eyes of
the envy-stricken city may be closed
in the silence and serenity of death.
A dose OF the death-dealing anasthet-
lc will be administered in due season,
he says, and the lifeless corpse of the
wat9rless city laid upon the cooling
board.-M0untaineer.
There is no doubt about his ability
to administer death dealing anasthet-
les, and less doubt about the result
if we were to follow the directions.
Our eyes would soon be, like those of
former patients, "closed in the silence
and serenity of DEATH" but we will
have none ofhis quack nostrums. We
have decided to continue the use Of
the great G. G. e. G. remedy, manu-
featured by the Massachusetts, and
Southern Construction Company.
1t cures all financial troubles and
moral disorders, enlightens and in.
vigorates and in fact is indispensable
to a progressive people. We have
tried few bottles and have been
greatly benefited and have ordered
fifty thousand dollars worth more,
Be wise, Doctor, and prescribe a sim
liar remedy to your people.

WOuidn't SpOil the Dinner.

An old war veteran, who had been through
half dozen campaign, and was not very
particular about what he ate, was invited out
to a swell dinner party. He sat Utmost
directly opposite the hostess, and was painful
ly conscious that every move he made could
be observed by her. Suddenly, at the height
Of the festivities, the veteran came across a
caterpillar in his salad A furtive glance at
the hostess disclosed the fact that she too had
discovered the embarrassing circumstance
Il was critical moment, but the old soldier
was equal to the occasion. Without changing
a muscle lie gathered up the caterpillar with
a forkful of the salad and swallowed both,
The look of gratitude which he received from
his hostess a few minutes later warmed the
very cookies of his heart. In due time the
story leaked out, and when somebody asked
the old campaigner how he liked caterpillar
salad, the reply came ike a hot shot; DO You
take me for man who would spoil dinner
party for little thing like caterpillar.s-
